Modular Synth
Modular synth (or modular synthesizer) music is created on systems composed of separate sound‑generating and sound‑shaping modules that are interconnected with patch cables. Instead of presets, the musician builds each sound by designing a signal path—an approach that encourages exploration, generative processes, and real‑time performance. The idiom spans contemplative ambient and minimalism, Berlin‑school style sequencer music, and more beat‑driven modular techno. Signature timbres include rich analog oscillators, voltage‑controlled filters (e.g., Moog ladder) and low‑pass gates (in Buchla‑style systems), randomized modulation sources, and hypnotic step‑sequenced patterns.
